    I'm dismayed to see some comments from FILIPINOS here saying the Filipino accent is very noticeable. Hey guys they are Filipinos! Unless you grew up in an an English speaking countries as your primary language , the accent will always be there. I think they did a brilliant job and I really love it and most of people here will agree with me. To some of the Filipinos here , Stop the crab mentality , You guys are annoying and stop ruining the good vibes here.

      Yes indeed, if British and Americans gives a thumbs up why can’t we. Instead of crab mentally let us support them rather than pulling them down wherever you are naysayers be proud of them as Filipinos, pulling them down will not make our country and citizens look any better to the eyes of the world. Kudos to the Reo Brothers, keep it up bros.

    one of my favorite folk music during my time. I used to request this song to play for me every time I come to eat at the pizza place in 70’s

    That brought tears to my eyes because it's a great song. If you sit and listen to the words, it makes my heart melt. I am so proud of you all. This was absolutely one of the best I've heard. Your whole family has a god-given gift of singing. Don't stop bringing joy to everyone. It's your calling and stand up and take that voice and do something big, once the Corona Virus disappears. Fill the stadium everywhere!!! Big smile and love from Anna Banana Hugs and smoochies, stay, safe, and healthy. Thank you!

    Nice song, good singing, great voices and excellent vibes. Gee, you are such an awesome band. And I'm sure your younger brother will reach the top, too. Continue what you're doing. Remember art is a form of discipline. Music is an art, therefore, music is discipline. I love this guys and I love this band..

    The most important thing is love, love is what they give happiness around the world by listening to them playing their instruments. Accent is nothing for me because I’m not born to be an English man. Hope everyone should understand that REO brothers are all self taught musicians. Let’s love them not hating this self taught musicians.

You 3 are very special incredibly good you need to make sure you get an agent who looks out for you get a good lawyer so you can not taken advantage of by the vicious recording sharks & slime ball producers. You are amazingly talented....can tell worked very hard wish you best of success.

    I listened to the song without watching to focus more on the vocals. All sang well, the harmony is spot on and well balanced. The high melodic line was well sung. Overall sound mixing is good with an acoustic guitar. The spirit of the song was captured. Well done. Thanks for sharing.

    Your Beatles covers are the best Beatles covers I've ever heard, but as you cover a broader and broader range of bands, it's become clear you sound great covering any song you chose to cover.
    Yet another outstanding cover from you guys! Thank you!

    An only child alone and wild, a cabinet maker's son
    His hands were meant for different work
    And his heart was known to none
    He left his home and went his lone and solitary way
    And he gave to me a gift I know I never can repay
    A quiet man of music denied a simpler fate
    He tried to be a soldier once, but his music wouldn't wait
    He earned his love through discipline, a thundering velvet hand
    His gentle means of sculpting souls took me years to understand
    The leader of the band is tired and his eyes are growing old
    But his blood runs through my instrument and his song is in my soul
    My life has been a poor attempt to imitate the man
    I'm just a living legacy to the leader of the band
    My brother's lives were different for they heard another call
    One went to Chicago and the other to St Paul
    And I'm in Colorado when I'm not in some hotel
    Living out this life I've chose and come to know so well
    I thank you for the music and your stories of the road
    I thank you for the freedom when it came my time to go
    I thank you for the kindness and the times when you got tough
    And papa, I don't think I said I love you near enough
    The leader of the band is tired and his eyes are growing old
    But his blood runs through my instrument and his song is in my soul
    My life has been a poor attempt to imitate the man
    I'm just a living legacy to the leader of the band
    I am a living legacy to the leader of the band.
